"Few computers – indeed, few consumer items of any kind – have generated such a wide range of opinions as the Macintosh. Criticized as an expensive gimmick and hailed as the liberator of the masses, the Mac is a potentially great system. Whether it lives up to that potential remains to be seen."

I've been playing with a Mac 512K at work with System 3.2 (Finder v5.3) and a 1MB RAM upgrade (it looks like its previous owner also hacked a SCSI port into it). It's sitting on a workbench next to a 2 GHz iMac G5 17" - talk about juxtaposition!
It's really interesting to see how it all began - the original Microsoft Works was actually kinda zippy, surprisingly enough!
